Series: Too Busy for Prayer? Part 1 of 7

May 25th, 2008 · No Comments

“I always forget to pray.”
Huh? How does someone forget to pray?

meditation2More than likely, it’s that they don’t want to pray (due to time and schedule pressures, feelings of inadequacy to pray in comparison to the way others pray, etc.) or they have little regard for the power of prayer, or never experienced its potential. In either case, it’s basically a problem of FAITH! Since we know that “faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Romans 10:17) we must discipline ourselves to study God’s Word and allow Jesus (Who is the Word), to speak to our hearts. I am reminded of the title of a book by Elisabeth Elliot, Discipline, the Glad Surrender. Sometimes, we must discipline ourselves daily to read our Bibles and pray. Once this discipline has been established, soon it will become the “glad surrender”, something we look forward to doing, rather than “having to do”. Something we truly miss when it’s not a part of our day. But, when fellowship with God through His Word and prayer truly becomes a priority, be ready for a most incredible journey, one that is guided by the Holy Spirit, Himself. It’ll be a glorious, supernatural transformation like no other. You won’t want to miss it!!!
